Do you bring stroller to mall or other shopping place? I saw some parents did it in mall and it seems not handy but holding a baby while shopping is a quite challenge too.

I take a pram and a carrier :-) I know it's a handful and I even have a tot with me. But I find that this is the most convenient arrangement. I out the baby on the pram while I try to fit clothes. When there is a long walk in the mall, my tot sits at the front of the pram.
